Spring has definitely sprung, even if this weather is killing us slowly. Before you know it, we will all be in our backyards, grilling up delicious food and slathering on sunscreen. I call first dibs on that medium rare ribeye! Do your springtime plans include planning your catering Salt Lake City area? If so, let’s go over a couple of options you can choose from when it comes to how your food is served at your event. It might be a family reunion, a corporate summer party or a gorgeous dream wedding. Whatever it may be, you’ve got options.
Buffet Service
This is the most common way we do events. It is popular because it is cost-effective and a great way to feed a big crowd. With Rockwell Catering, we have become total pros with buffets. We have beautiful shiny, roll-top chafing dishes that present the food in a spectacular way. Our servers keep the buffet full and stocked, making sure the flow of the buffet continues without interruption. This is something you don’t get when you get “catering” from a restaurant.
Sit-Down Service
A sit-down service is when your guests are served at their tables. As the host, you choose a menu that will be the same for everyone. Our servers plate the food and bring it to your guests. To ensure that everyone is served in a timely manner, we actually hire a few extra servers. Sit-down service is great for when you want your guests to relax and converse. This is also when you can do assigned seating.
Station Service
This type of service is when instead of one big buffet, we have a few different “stations”. This is a great way for your guests to have a little bit of a many different dishes. For example, one station could be a taco station with tortillas, carne asada and pico de gallo. Another station could be pasta with a few different sauces. And a third station can be a variety of salads and rolls. It’s really up to you. Whatever station is fine with us! It’s a fun, interactive way to have an event for catering Salt Lake City area.
Tray Service
This is only used with appetizer events, but it’s a great way for your guests to keep the conversation going without the interruption of need to get inline for a buffet or station. Our servers can pass around a variety of appetizers, some light and some heavier. This type of catering Salt Lake City area is popular for mixers, when you want people to get to know one another, network and make connections.
